GOTV, GOTV, GOTV!
Those are solid leads at this point.
He's not doing as well as he should in Indiana...
Sorry, now 57-43 Obama in FLA. He’s pulling ahead fast there.......
I’m getting sick........
McCain will win Florida and Indiana. I am still worried about VA, and I don’t believe the DC suburbs have come in yet.
mccain just told press “this would be there last trip on this airplane” his campaign airplane, has he seen numbers that lead him to believe they would next be flying on air force one?
Indiana? 1% is solid? Why? Is that 10% from Indianapolis?
In Indiana Mitch Daniels-R leading by 18%. McCain leading Hussein by 1%. Appears folks are splitting the ticket. Hold on for 1st Congressional District (includes Lake County and Gary)
Keep praying, keep fighting.
Fox news shows BO in the lead 55% to 45%
What’s up in Florida? The early returns don’t look good.
He’s down alot in FLorida...I just hope the 8 o’clock hour is good for mccain from North florida......
The percentage filpped real fast. Those must be Miami/Dade numbers pouring in.
Sorry to rain on your parade but so far Florida has Obama in the lead. Granted, the Panhandle has weighed in yet and typical Rat territories are being counted first, so this isn’t over, not by a longshot. McCain is up in Virginia and Indiana though and I would like to see both of those states called for McCain soon. But of course you know the socialist media, they won’t admit defeat until the bitter end. This is gonna be a long night.
“What’s up in Florida? The early returns don’t look good.”
2% is a tiny portion of the state.
That was likely in a very democrat area.
Don’t torture youselves people with this early stuff.
Where are they getting FL numbers — all numbers for FL are embargoed until the Panhandle votes.
SF Gate?
This is that stupid paper that hid the Coal Mine and Energy Obama Interview!
North Florida is ALWAYS the last to post. North Florida is where the Republicans are. Y’all need to calm down and quit letting the Dem propaganda freak you out. We’re winning FL.
